New Release - v0.5.0 - Dismiss & Persistence

[scoblitz]

I am so excited about this new release - it makes Scrobble Analyzer much more useful, especially the new ability to dismiss the issues you have fixed to remove them from view. If you work in multiple session, it will now remember this dismissed state if you re-import the same file.

Here are full release notes!

✨ New Features

Dismiss Issues

• Dismiss button on each issue lets you mark items as fixed or "won't fix"
• Dismissed items are hidden from the main view and counts update accordingly
• Per-track dismissal for Missing Albums and Compilations - work through long lists at your own pace
• "View dismissed only" toggle to review and restore items if needed

Persistence

• Your dismissed items are saved automatically and restored when you re-import the same file
• Uses a hash of your file to identify it - different exports start fresh
• Stored locally in your browser (nothing sent to any server)

Smart Quote Detection

• Detects Unicode vs ASCII apostrophe variations (e.g., "Don't" vs "Don't")
• Common issue when copying artist/track names from MusicBrainz
• Flagged with a yellow "⚠️ smart quote" badge

Better Onboarding

• New empty state with instructions on how to get your export file
• "What's New" section so returning users know about updates
• Links to GitHub Issues/Discussions for feedback
• Email signup for release notifications

Improved Error Handling

• Friendly error message when uploading files with missing/invalid headers
• Links to documentation for supported formats

🐛 Bug Fixes

• Fixed click-drag closing cards - You can now select text to copy without the card collapsing
• Cards stay expanded when dismissing individual tracks

📋 Technical Notes

• All data processing still happens 100% client-side
• No data is sent anywhere - your scrobble history stays private
• Persistence uses localStorage keyed by file hash
